    I have very high functioning autism. Most people cannot tell I have it but when I get upset or have meltdowns it's very very hard. I'm much better at it now (I'm 20) than I was when I was a Kid. My parents never put me through therapy and honestly I feel like if I would have had a therapist like you as a kid I'd be in a much better position today. Thank you for your contribution sir, you're a blessing to humanity.

    I was thinking the same way and i am 31 and struggle with meltdowns still. Much better than three years ago but my husband and i are running out of ideas for me. We have thought of vreating a room for me, but we rent and have no spaces. Any suggestions on helping an adult? I flap like that girl and im overstimulated easily. I have small stim tools but it doesnt help when im passed that stage.

    L.W. Tomaso I know how you feel and it is very hard I've had a very rough time with my episodes especially in school because I get picked on and taunted by other students but there are some ways that help me maybe you could try some of them for me stuffed animals usually help with the stress and anxiety when I'm overwhelmed or sometimes coloring and drawing helps while listening to symphony or nature sounds I personally think the best way to help control yourself is with anything that makes you feel happy and safe it actually seems to work well for most it was very helpful for my best friend who also has the same problems as me I hope my advice is helpful for you and things become a little more easier as well.

    This is helpful! I shared with one of my clients who has a son with autism. I think blowing bubbles is a great way to encourage kids to calm down. The bubbles are distracting and calming in and of themselves. Then you add a caring therapist into the mix and rapport building and the child is likely to respond positively. I continue to see some teachers, occupational therapists, and parents overload the child too soon as a result of not understanding how to stimulate interest without talking, directives, or rules. I have made this mistake in the past myself. With greater knowledge, it becomes apparent that kids on the spectrum, especially those on the lower end, need to approach stressful tasks with a relaxed muscle body and mindset.

    WARNING SUPER LONG IM SORRY!!! well, i have to thank you more. You are an amazing human being. by what i see in your videos, you show so much respect, love, and care for all. no matter what someones obsticles, such as autism in this case, you are able to see them as another beautiful person. i think that you realize that some people have challenges, possibly even different than youve personally experenced, and youre able to push that to the side to reveal the true person underneath. i did not rewatch this video as i am responding, but i remember very clearly how calm, understanding, gentile, and how amazing you are. and its giving me that urge to cry again lol. i wish i could be like you. at least accepting of others when i was a child, and even now i still find it hard. when i was in elementary school i was put in special ed because i had adhd and oppasitional defiance disorder, and i was really mean, loud, i swore a lot and threw tantrums a lot. (i was only JUST recentally diagnosed to be on the spectrum). but as i was saying, there was this boy, Clion, who had, i guess moderate autism. he wasnt throwing fits but he was always talking to himself and his action figures. he would also stare at me and follow me around. i was so mean to him, and other kids (even this one boy who had such difficulty walking, and was always really nice to me, but i was always mean to him). but Clion drove me bonkers. i wanted to hurt him because he drove me crazy so much. and i guess i didnt really understand the whole 'autism' thing. and looking back, 1, it couldve been foreshadowing (lol) because maybe he knew i was autistic too, while no one else did. and 2, i realize how hard it is just for ME to connect with people and make friends, and he was less functioning than i was/am, so i cant even imagine how he felt or feels now. and ive always had so much trouble at school, where the teachers refused to help me in any way because i was "too smart and can figure it out herself". and thats the struggle im still to this day dealing with. i was going to try to get my HSED (like a GED) at a local collage and my school REFUSED to sign off on it because "i am fully capible of doing it. and i have better grades than 70 % of the school". i had C's and D's. i feel like i need to be rocking back and forth in a corner drooling for someone to help me. but they wont. they only see how "smart" i am. just because im smart doesnt mean i wont ever need help! but, i started getting depression in 7th grade, when i was 14. ive been institutionalised for depression and suicide attempts in the past. ive self harmed, and ive never really been in a good place, emotionally and mentally. and maybe now... now that ive been diagnosed, something will change. i want to embrase it. ive started a blog on tumblr and im trying to start a channel on youtube about autism and stuff. its called THEAUSSIEINMYSKY . and really, i have only three reasons i am not dead yet. 1, my dog. 2, books. ive always loved to read. i taught myself to do it actually. and 3, JACKSEPTICEYE. i look forward to seeing his videos. he always puts a smile on my face when nothing and noone else can. hes my inspiration. my hero. my everything. i would love to talk to him. let him know how thankfull i am for him. i want to be friends with him. he would be the biggest supporter in my life. but i dont really think he would want to talk to someone like me... im sorry to tell you all of this, but the point i want to make is, is that you can change the lives of so many people if you keep doing what youre doing. you can make such a huge difference. and i support you. and I hope you continue to be this wonderful and selfless being until the day you die.

    hi i am a father of a 14 years old autistic boy. From 6 years ago he has a very strange behavior that i really can't explain properly. He has apparently no sensitivity to sounds as he never complains that a sound is bothering him but for example he is playing games suddenly he starts crying and saying my ear is reading then he starts a kind of ritual a series of repeating actions he goes to the bathroom making sounds with his tongue, speaking with himself something like " farhan, farhan, you can, you have to be strong " (farhan is his name). Then he starts shouting and crying and says no, no, i couldn't i couldn't and saying repeatedly " why my ears cant read" then he goes to his mother and says kiss my ears, eyes and face so he becomes good. after that he again goes to bathroom and again do the same, this process is going on for several hours till he comes and says it is finished i am oky. Then he is normal for an hour or two and again the same happens. We give him respridone abd flovaxamin. These days his condition is more worse than two months ago. now as you are on the spectrum please tell me what dows he feel and what makes him do this behavior? thank you. if any one else can help please

    This is amazing (though it is important for viewers to know that what works well for one autistic person doesn't necessarily work well for every autistic person). These strategies seemed tailored to fit the needs of this individual child and would likely work well with many other children and even older individuals on and off the spectrum, though not all. Some children (especially younger) might become over stimulated by the bubbles or the iPad and begin grabbing for them, for example. What did shine through was how in tune you were with the client and how you managed a to have a lesson which was *both* well planned out and child-lead. Brilliant!

    I appreciated this video. I would say though that you treated her hand stimming (hand flapping) as if it were a negative when actually, it could be understood (and this is how I read it) as her expressing her pleasure at the music you were playing. as she started doing it when you started playing the guitar as well as vocalizing and It looks like she's non-verbal so I thought that her stimming was in this case meaningful communication/expression. I think too often NTs don't get stimming and just think of it as some aberrant behavior that they want to stop. There is lots of information now from the perspective of autistic adults on stimming and its significance that would be good for you and viewers to connect with (Please see: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iZmspbmTgK2rZqQ.html). Many NTs also assume that eye contact is desirable or the pinnacle of interaction without understanding what may be going on with someone who isn't making eye contact -- for example, that person may find it easier to listen or to focus when they aren't having to process the extra visual input they'd get from looking at you as you play music or talk. The goal should be to end up with a healthy, happy autistic adult who can self-regulate and express themselves versus pushing looking or acting like a neurotypical. Other than that you seem well-meaning and quite kind and patient with your clients.

    I agree. My 2.9 year old is non verbal. He did no eye contact, since I found out about him being autistix back in june. I started playing with him with how HE wants to play, whether that meant getting down on the floor and spinning a toy car wheel for an hour beside him or running around in circles etc... After 5 weeks of me interacting with him every day numerous times, copying HIM he started watching me, after another 2 weeks he started looking at me in my eyes briefly, and now he can stare me in the eyes. However improving his eye contact was not my intention at all I jist wanted to try help him interact with me more, but he started doing this himself, it was Not forced at all. He also pulls my hand for me to get down on floor and play with him now. He also watches me sing and dance and smiles and we have lesrnt to do the moves to wheels on bus together, head shoulders knees, wind the bobbin. He now knows all the moves from watching me. He has also started repeating words in echolalia amd also 3 words on a communicative way. Back in june he was completely non verbal. This can all be achieved without pressurising a child. We just need to go into their world, not force them into coming into ours 🙂

    Wow, that's so incredible to see. I'm so used to people getting fed up with us autistics, so to see you recognizing her needs, and meeting them, getting on her level, doing the things with her, (and the creative way of getting a kid to take deep breaths by blowing bubbles! That's brilliant!!) just makes me so happy. I'm glad there are therapists like you in the world, there needs to be more 💓

    I love the way you're so gentle and sensitive and tuned in to the children you work with. You really watch them and respond to their body language. I think your videos should be required watching for those working with autistic kids

    This is so wonderful to see. I myself am not autistic but I suffer from difficulties processing sensory information, possibly from anxiety or from undiagnosed SPD, but this is so amazing to see. I work in a therapeutic horsemanship center, and seeing the other volunteers there trying to handle one of our autistic students by snapping in his face and grabbing his hands makes me so mad, but try as I might no one will listen. Seeing this, that people CAN understand how to do this, especially after seeing and hearing so many things about how most therapists handle autistic children or children in sensory overload, just gives me a little more hope in the world. I need to remember the 60 BPM music for when I have anxiety attacks or for when I'm in sensory overload because this is honestly one of the best things I have ever seen. I wish more people handled neurodivergent patients and students like you do.
